Waterstone's Belgium Review

Best English bookshop in Brussels. Vast choice of books and magazines. Also possible to order books.

Very interesting for English books but American books are less available

A great place for book lovers a huge choice of english(mainly) books

Decent selection of popular English books with a scattering of American books thrown in. You can also buy Marmite and marmelade and other British food. The store is nicely laid out and never too crowded. Other random things as well like children's toys and puzzles and calendars. A large store considering its in Brussels.

A good collection of books and good sales when i was there (discount on buying a second book). Almost always i find something wonderful there :)

The best selection of English language books in Brussels. Nice atmosphere, and easy to navigate. They can also special order books that are not in stock. Unfortunately, in the age of online book purchasing, it s hard for a store like this to compete on price. Expect to pay at least 20- 25 for a paperback.

Gorgeous. Could spend a few hours here without being bored. Friendly staff and great book selection.

British / English bookstore in the heart of Brussels. Large selection of English books and magazines.

English bookstore in the centre of Brussels with good selections and nice atmosphere.

A great variety of English books, and they are very kind!

Nice place to buy a book in English. Very similar to Barnes and Nobles

If you are looking for English books,this is the shop to go in Brussels.

There are nice postcards there but unfortunately no stamps.

A great selection of books and a perfect location in the center of Brussels. Staff is helpful. Even if they don't have the book you are looking for it can be ordered.

Great books and atmosphere, very helpful staff. I love it!

Beautiful library full of English texts. Staff very nice and helpful.

If you ever need books in English when you're in Belgium. This is the place to go. They have awesome books. They have a good selection of books, do you can have some books in English.

Books of various genre are available..best thing about this store - English books are available..friendly staff..!!

A smaller version than the Waterstones in Oxford, but still the best English-language bookstore! There is a wide choice of books, and you can also order extra if desired. Friendly staff and a nice atmosphere where you always discover something new!

I love going here. A piece of UK in Brussels. And they wrap your Christmas gifts with a smile.

A nice and cosy book store, similar in the way as they are in the Great Land that is the United Kingdom. What would be nice additives, which I have seen there but not quite here are:

* more small book summaries /opinions especially on the lesser known books and not just those that are known to everyone already

*a nice little bar somewhere as I am used to Waterstones having

*a little more cosiness in the chairs upstairs. For me personally, it's also a bit too.. Open.. For a bookstore. I prefer books all around me, nooks and crannies. But still a 4/5!

Bookshop with everything you would expect and some UK food favourites and magazines.

Super cute English bookstore, nice things to find, very friendly staff

A wide selection of books in English. The novelties of both fiction and non-fiction are presented. There is a loyalty program.

Simply a pearl, the employees are super sympathetic and help you spontaneously. I wanted to order a book, they were traced so that I could order it immediately. My surprise was that it was a lot cheaper than in another bookstore.

If you love books, go there! I love this bookshop. Explore the ground floor. They have a really nice poetry and fantasy section, books that are food for the heart & soul. Let the beautiful staircase swoop you off your feet to the next book level, with fun psychology books and other books that are food for the brain, food for foodlovers and food for the wanderers. Books for every English reading soul. And as a bonus, you have really friendly staff, always happy to help. Go find your treasure.

Always an amazing feeling to smell new books. Online you may not be well advised of books you might enjoy based on readings you liked !

Very welcome English bookstore in Northern Brussels too bad they close that early!

Great shop for British items to be read in Brussels.

Very beautiful place for bookeaters. Unfortunately doesn't have all the titles. But you can order easily

Great place to buy English books, and they always have some promotion to make prices more interesting!

Great bookstore with a great selection of both books and magazines. Super friendly and helpful staff and great customer service when order books.

Establishment of the British chain. Huge range of fiction, non-fiction, magazines and a number of British specialties. Old fashioned style of operation.

My favourite bookstore in town, great choice of books, magazines and newspapers.

Cool book shop. A lot of English literature. Also some interesting tasty things from UK you can find here.

This is a lovely store, very friendly staff too. BUT there is nowhere to sit and hang out for a bit such as a seating area or a cafe. What a shame! Big downside!

one of the best English literature book shops in Brussels. From novels periodical and magazines over several floors civering most catagories. Staff are helpful and informative. Open on Sundays. ICT/Computer related books a bit lacking.

i ve been coming here for years. it is my sunday pleasure, lovely. excellant vegan magazines too.

The best place in Brussels to get the latest books in English. Very useful also for purchasing school books for the kids enrolled in the English sections of the European Schools.

Large selection of English books in Brussels, friendly staff and peaceful atmosphere.

Great staff & large collection of books from business to history to cooking books.

Good choice of books, also in English. Easy to find location on one of main streets of central Brussels.

A haven for book lovers. And a little slice of England too. We probably visit at least once a week just to look but inevitably come away a little lighter of pocket.

The regular Christmas visit to Waterstones to pick up a few books by virtue of having touched them rather than staring at an image on Amazon is an annual tradition to be looked forward to. Tge staff are always passionate about books and there ard often good offers on multiple purchases. Way to get into the Christmas spirit.

A huge bookstore with a lot of different kind of books and magazines

Wonderful staff, great collection of books, appreciate the British snacks on the ground floor and the area is very spacious and comforting.

Big choice of gift books, very pleasant and helpful staff

Very bad service. I ask for information on school books and the lady says to me "You must look in the department". Ray that was just behind her and that I had already searched ...

I rang just before closing time to ask if they had two books in stock, which they did. They were very patient and polite - yes I could pay cash or by card and yes they would reserve them for me.
Picked the books up the next day. Again they were very polite and helpful - ultra-hygienic (masks, hand sanitizer, marks on floor and plastic shielded checkout) and I could take my small bike inside.

The best bookshop in Brussels for books in English.

Easy to get to. The staff is polite, pleasant and very helpful.

Great place to buy English books, reminds me of the UK.

Beautiful library of texts almost exclusively in English very provided is in an easily accessible position

Firstly they re unfortunately quite overpriced but, I love they re interior: very clean, tidy. There is so calm inside. A good place for english-speaking bookworms. :)

I know it's a chain, but it's great... What can I say one of the two bookshops for me

Waterstones, English bookshop in Brussels. A good bookshop, helpful personnel. They also have foodies and gadgets from the UK.
